Did April Home Sales Drop in Cincinnati?
April single-family home sales in Greater Cincinnati are miraculous!
First the weekly report on real estate activity:
April closings reflect sales from February and March.
Board of Relator Report
As predicted last month the impact of social distancing and jobs was not full-blown until mid-March. So slowing sales will start to appear in April closings.
Sales/closings were really robust when you consider the “shelter-in-place” and concern over how to safely show a property. Real estate isn’t back to normal but I think the numbers show a high-level of consumer interest and willingness to work through a “no-touch” deal.
April property sales were down -20.5% from April 2019 and -5.6% lower than last month.
